Ishtiaque successfully defended his Ph.D. Thesis presentation! He will join Intel, lithography team at Hillsboro, Oregon. Congratulations!!!

Sangsik’s paper on “Exceptional points in lossy media lead to deep polynomial wave penetration with spatially uniform power loss” was published in Nature Nanotechnology!
This project collaborates with NIST scientists, where Sangsik initiated the idea while he was a postdoc at NIST. It took a long time, but finally out there for disclosure. Check out the original journal (view-only version) and NIST News about it!

Borhan successfully defended his Ph.D. Thesis! He is the first Ph.D. graduate of our group and will join NeoPhotonics Corporation as a Senior Silicon Photonics Design Engineer at San Jose, CA. Huge congratulations!!!

After a long Covid, we had a group lunch together, welcoming the spring! Let’s eat well, stay healthy, and then enjoy working!

Sangsik has been awarded the National Science Foundation (NSF) CAREER Award for 2022! We are excited to tackle the scaling issues inherent to integrated nanophotonics and apply subwavelength gratings for diverse photonic applications. Congratulations!
